Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 8

I love these Clifton 8 sneakers in the wide width. They are extraordinarily light! The stride is soft and cushiony but not too springy. The toe box is big enough to accommodate the bunion on my right foot. The heel cups my foot solidly. The sole gives me stability, which is especially important because I have neuropathy in my feet. The bright orange laces cheer me up. I'd love to find these in a leather shoe for winter here in New England.

I use to be a loyal Brooks fan. The cadence to be exact. I know they changed it a few years back which made me switch around to mizuno's, new balance and even Nike. I believe brooks took their cadence off the market. I went to a rei to try the hoka's and immediately felt the relief everyone tells me about. I mean talk about cushion! I love that it has great ankle support too. The sales person sold me on a 9 1/2 woman's (I'm a solid 8.5). They were WAY too big so I returned them for a 9 and those are perfect. I have narrow feet and I guess these run narrow but for me they are perfect. They broke in pretty easily. I don't do marathons anymore but average at about 10-12 miles a week. This is all road running(bike paths, sidewalks and streets). These are the first pair of running shoes that I don't experience foot pain. My ankles feel sore sometimes but that's with most shoes I run. For comfort and support I'd rate these a 10/10. That said the height of the shoe scared me. Where I run the ground can be uneven. I get tired and don't lift my leg high enough sometimes. In some cases there has been times where I've tripped because I didn't raise my leg high enough. With a thick sole I was convey that it would catch and I'd trip. It's happened before! Well it hasn't happened with these. I could be aware and just making sure I raise my knee so I don't. A couple times walking i did feel it drag a couple times. The sole is thick. Bottom line I do love them. They look better on also. Very comfortable running shoe.

Things are great

I am working a new job and these shoes are heaven!

This is my second Hoka, previously had Bondi 7. This shoe is sooo comfortable for walking 10-12hrs/day! Love it

The support in the heel area is unbelievable! Love them

I ordered wide they feel good other then they are a little lose on my heels

As soon as I put this shoe on it felt good. It balances my weight on my feet and makes 12hrs on my feet bearable! They also help with my back pain. I'm purchasing again.

I'm on my second pair of these shoesI've been training for a 40 mile race and these shoes have been great.

Great sneaker for walking. I get the support I need. Very comfortable, well cushioned and just what I needed dealing with arthritis in my knee.

Best shoes to run in and great for all day wear.

I have been having cramping and pain in the joints of my feet and these shoes have aided in alleviating most of the pain. I only wear them for running on the treadmill and during my workout and I have noticeably less pain. They are very comfortable and great cushion.

This is my second pair. Wore Brooks for many years. I'm impressed with the support and stability.

Great cushioning. Very comfortable.

Does wonders for my knees

I bought 2 pairs of these. One for gym type activities and one for every day wear. They are just fabulous!

It took a minute to get my complimentary sneakers but it was worth the delivery mix up and the wait!

These shoes immediately made me feel like I could move again and do anything that I wanted! They massage your feet and you feel like you can walk all day! They are the most amazing shoes I have ever worn. A definite must for any amusement park visits or just day to day errands.
